Chalking Method

The Earthly Chalking method is another word we use at The Muddy Puddle Teacher for when we use chalk outside to support learning objectives. This could be chalk or it could be pastels we tend to use both with our online resources.  However, chalk can be a very fun material to use outside furthermore it’s very versatile and washes away when the rain comes. Where we chalk can vary such as walls, floors, benches and fences.   CHalking can be a fantastic opportunity to help with fine and gross motor work. Here are some examples of learning opportunities we would often use with chalk. 

See our YouTube channel for clips of these activities happening. Remember all of our online resources include these methods so use the search bar, search for an objective and let us do the work for you!
